So will France

Does anyone remember Grez Hungarian Village on Lawndale? Lived across the street from it when I was a kid back in the 50's, saw Soapy Williams and his Rolls there one night.

I have been a good old Detroit Michigander all my life and will die a Michigander.

I was taking an all expense paid vacation courtesy of Uncle Lyndon.

Look on wikipedia. He died in Pontiac

There used to be a hamburger place on the corner of Vernor and Dragoon next to Boyer Playfield. Seems to me like it was a white place, kinda like White Castle. Does any remember the name of it?

Back in the 50's, it was a eerie sound when the sirens were tested, I had my shelter under the front porch all ready. Thinking about it now, I doubt the lattice work would have offered much...

At Lawndale and Olivet I was the snow sweeper. Get up at 5 to shovel my custormers walks before I went to school, it was COLD!!

Hey fuck you all, it was a simple question, I'm not a lawyer and don's know international law, I didn't go to college but I did grow up in Detroit and still consider it my home. What a bunch of...

Why don't the whaling ships shoot the whip that are disrupting their whaling activities? A well placed round would blow the prop off and they would be dead in the water with no loss of life.

Thank you all

I came to Detroit this week to bury my mother. Now she is gone I have no plans to ever return, my sisters want to see me they can come to my house. It seriously breaks my heart to remember the...

Has there been a thread about when and why people left Detroit? I think that would be interesting. I left in 1966 when I got drafted.

I left Detroit 43 years ago but I am still a Detroiter, still love the city of my youth and wish it were still the booming place it was during my youth.

All politicions are liars.

Southwestern in 63 we swam naked.

Why is someone concerned about killing the rats? Why just chase them to someone elses place? Electrocute them, trap and move them? WTF????

We were poor, I didn't have the train that smoked. I loved go to a Christmas tree sales lot on Fort Street and just inhaling the wonderful odor of those trees.

1952 or 53. Santa at Hudson's, the place was like a dream, Christmas display at Ford Rotunda then woke up Christmas morning to find a Lionel train under the tree. Tons of aunts, uncles and cousins...

Lawndale and Olivet, Wilson then Southwestern, '65 grad then Sam got me in '66 and I did't go back. I loved the old neighborhood, sad what it is today.

Any one grew up in Southwest Detroit?

The freak show is over

I didn/t do anything to anybody, why do I owe anyone an apology or reparations? It ain't right.

It saddens me that my home has become a ruined city.
